Yours is a good answer - the main problem with Iv's question is that
it won't work. If s/he randomly changes every request then all I have
to do is make a 1000(000) requests and average the points to get the
true response.

Several people have already told her/him that s/he needs to modify the
source data but apparently "the boss" doesn't want to do it right. We
kind of lost interest then.
